Maybe I'll kiss you some wild special way.
If nobody kills me or thrills me soon,

Just as long as we're together.”

But to compare it to a beauty like yours would give one pause.”

Alphabet St.
Song lyrics, Lovesexy (1988)

“I was workin' part-time in a 5-and-dime.
My boss was Mr. McGee, huh.
He told me several… times
That he didn't like my kind cuz I was a bit 2 leisurely.
It seems that I was busy doin' somethin' close 2 nothin',
But different than the day before
That's when I saw her, ooh, I saw her,
She walked in through the out door …out door.She wore a raspberry beret
The kind U find in a second hand store
Raspberry beret
And if it was warm she wouldn't wear much more
Raspberry beret
I think I love her.”

“Now where I come from
We don't let society
Tell us how it's supposed to be
Our clothes, our hair
We don't care
It's all about being there
Everybody's going Uptown
That's where I wanna be
Uptown
Set your mind free.”

Prince

Uptown
Song lyrics, Dirty Mind (1980)

“There is a park that is known
4 the face it attracts
colorful people whose hair
On 1 side is swept back
The smile on their faces
It speaks of profound inner peace
Ask where they're going
They'll tell U nowhere
They've taken a lifetime lease
On Paisley Park.”

Prince

Ain't no particular sign I'm more compatible with
I just want your extra time and your
Kiss.”
